White House officials flagged Trump's behavior to psychiatrist last year

White House officials reached out to a noted Yale University psychiatrist last fall out of concern over President Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior.

Psychiatrist Bandy Lee, who edited the bestselling book "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President,” told the Daily News Thursday the staffers contacted her because the President was “scaring” them.

Lee’s revelation comes as Trump fumes in response to an anonymous op-ed about administration insiders White House tell-all by journalist Bob Woodward that claims there are grave concerns among the highest ranks of the Trump administration about the President’s judgment.

Anyone who has honestly been paying any attention at all, and isn't a Rabid Trump Cult Member has had to notice some of his actions and find concern about them.

In my opinion, most of that letter could have been inferred by an outsider. I was hoping for some details that only a top official would know, a detail that was shared in a full room of people so that it won't be easy to track it to a single source. The point I am trying to make is that Trump's public personality doesn't really change in private.

I'm more worried about the psychopaths that belive "Democratic Socialism" is anyway different than communism, and that we should embrace such evil ideology as a nation.

I worry why the GOP knows they have a problem and refuse to investigate Trump and his administration.

There is a list put out, by the GOP. It shows potential investigations on Trump and his Administration.

"anonymous source" equals a hurting newspaper that nobody cares about.... hoping somebody will buy their sad rag...


Trying to hurt Trump is making him MORE popular and more likely to WIN in 2020. Does that disappoint you Hillary?

At this point in American History, what's Hillary got to do with it? America in my view, lost, when over qualified, Hillary was defeated by a sham electoral system.

Now we must move forward. Elect an adult that is qualified to be a leader of one of the best places on earth. We dare and should not elect another despot, bigot. Someone who believes in climate change. Someone with CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS, not a jerk with an agenda of his own, to destroy everything in America, and the world thus far.

None of this is news except the part of keeping certain documents away from him. LOL at those blowing this off because it's an "anonymous source." Some Republicans with inside knowledge have brought up this content before and know this is a man child with a bad attitude who is in way over his head.

I'm wondering if this could be Mike Pence because of "lodestar." As far as I know he's the only one in the administration who has used that word before. He's putting on quite an act if it is him but a big mistake for him to use that word if it is.

That being said I do not understand why this person would go to the NY Times about this. As stated the Op-Ed is not really news. I think the name of the person who wrote this will eventually come out...

No, if the op ed writer is caught (and every effort should be made to do so)...they should be fired, sent to prison and ideally get the death penalty. That being said Trump got himself into this situation by putting deep state establishment Republicans in his administration. He made some very poor choices.

"Slate today is taking the rare step of publishing a letter someone sent us from inside an ongoing bank robbery. We have done so at the request of the author, who is currently robbing a bank, but would like to minimize his exposure to criminal charges from this whole bank robbery thing now that it seems to be going south. We invite you to submit a question about this essay or our vetting process here."

...“Machine Gun” Bill McGuire, the leader of the gang of hardened criminals currently robbing the First National Bank, is facing a test to his leadership unlike any faced by a modern American bank robber.

...The dilemma—which he does not fully grasp—is that many of the senior henchmen inside his own gang are working diligently from within the bank to paint ourselves as heroes in the press while continuing to stuff our duffel bags with as much money as we can grab.
